Can kiwifruit be propagated by cuttings?

Kiwifruit is a large vine plant. In addition to seed propagation, kiwifruit can also be propagated by layering, cuttings, and grafting. However, in order to obtain seedlings, it is generally necessary to use seed propagation to obtain seedlings and then use methods such as grafting, cuttings, or layering before large-scale seedling cultivation.

Kiwifruit cutting propagation

Kiwifruit can be propagated by cuttings. When propagating kiwifruit by cuttings, the soil must be loose, well-drained sandy loam. The soil in the seedbed must be disinfected before cuttings. Generally, the cuttings are inserted vertically into the soil. If the cuttings are longer, they can also be inserted obliquely.

Kiwi cutting time

The best time for kiwifruit cuttings is from early July to late September. At this time, the mother tree branches have stopped growing, but have not yet become lignified. The survival rate after cuttings is very high, but you must pay attention to the cutting method. You must choose strong and full branches without diseases and insect pests, and the substrate must have good air permeability to enable the kiwifruit to grow better after cuttings.

Kiwifruit cutting propagation method

The method of kiwifruit cutting propagation is relatively simple. You can use new branches or hard branches after the leaves fall for cuttings. The cuttings need to have 3 buds left, and the remaining leaves should be cut off. Then, soak them in rooting powder for 1-2 days before cuttings.
